BACnetCopyPropertyContents (FUN)¶

FUNCTION BACnetCopyPropertyContents : IEC_BACNET_STATUS

Copies a property contents buffer.

Some usefull function for copying property contents buffer. To use this function all the pointers inside data structures in source property contents needs to reside within the given buffer size. If you get an property contents from stack API (hook or callback) this is guaranteed.n If pointers are not arranged this way the function will return an error. Memory for the destination contents will be allocated if it is initialized with pointer NULL and size 0 by the user application. In this case it has to be freed with a call to ::BACnetFreeStackAllocatedMemory after use.

Return: IEC_BACNET_STATUS
